OPI

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 20 years

Opi is a very special cat who likely brings many years of life experience. Unfortunately, we do not know his exact age, but we estimate him to be around 20 years old. At our shelter, Opi shows himself to be a very people-oriented and affectionate cat. He enjoys the closeness to his humans very much and loves to be thoroughly stroked. If he really likes someone, it can happen that Opi makes himself comfortable on their shoulders or in the neck area. Then you can even take a little walk with him - for Opi apparently the perfect way to be very close to his human. Due to his high age, Opi can no longer see very well. However, he copes with this and enjoys his familiar surroundings and the closeness to his humans. We wish Opi a quiet home where he can enjoy his twilight years to the fullest. He would like to be the only cat there and not have to share his home with other cats or other animals. More important than action and hustle and bustle for him are loving people who give him time, peace and lots of cuddles. We very much hope that Opi will find a home where he will simply be loved and get the attention he enjoys so much.

Opi ist ein ganz besonderer Kater, der vermutlich schon viele Jahre Lebenserfahrung mitbringt. Sein genaues Alter kennen wir leider nicht, wir schätzen ihn aber auf etwa 20 Jahre.Bei uns zeigt sich Opi als ausgesprochen menschenbezogener und verschmuster Kater. Er genießt die Nähe zu seinen Menschen sehr und lässt sich für sein Leben gerne ausgiebig kraulen. Wenn er jemanden richtig ins Herz geschlossen hat, kann es auch schon einmal vorkommen, dass Opi es sich auf den Schultern bzw. im Nackenbereich gemütlich macht. Dann kann man mit ihm sogar ein kleines Stück herumspazieren – für Opi offenbar die perfekte Art, ganz nah bei seinem Menschen zu sein. Aufgrund seines hohen Alters kann Opi nicht mehr besonders gut sehen. Er kommt damit aber zurecht und genießt vor allem seine vertraute Umgebung und die Nähe zu seinen Menschen.Für Opi wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er seinen Lebensabend in vollen Zügen genießen darf. Er möchte dort gerne Einzelprinz sein und sein Zuhause nicht mit weiteren Katzen oder anderen Tieren teilen müssen. Viel wichtiger als Action und Trubel sind für ihn liebevolle Menschen, die ihm Zeit, Ruhe und ganz viele Kuscheleinheiten schenken.Wir hoffen sehr, dass Opi noch einmal ein eigenes Zuhause findet, in dem er einfach geliebt wird und die Aufmerksamkeit bekommt, die er so sehr genießt.

About OPI

What life with OPI looks like

OPI is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Lübbersdorf in Germany.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting OPI, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about OPI?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Lübbersdorf handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw OPI on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt OPI if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Lübbersdorf will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is OPI already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if OPI isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Lübbersdorf early rather than rehoming privately; they know OPI and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
